FMS stop recording video in middle of recording

Report · Aug 31, 2012

I am trying to record the h.264 long video through fms server side code(more than 2 hour), but video recording is stopped before I stop publishing the video, and it’s not throwing any error in server side as well as client side, I have given the video recording code

stream=Stream.get("mp4:testStream.f4v");

if(stream)

{

stream.record("append");

stream.play(streamName, -1, -1);

}

and recorded video also not playing fine, its stuck in middle. should I need to modify anything? Any help are appreciated......

Hi,

Please use the recommended Application - DVRCast - for Server Side recording and report back if you are still not able to record content.

Thanks,

Shiven

Can you paste the whole server-side code and what are you using for publishing? And is there set pattern where your recording stops? Can you check your server-side core.00.logs and see if you see any recording failures?

For publishing I am using the action script code, It stops after 40 min some time its recording fine upto two hours I count find where its stoping and why its happening, I am giving the server side code and client publishing code and the log with this

Server side code

------------------------

application.onAppStart = function()
{
     trace("app fme started!");
     application.message_so = SharedObject.get( "message");
     // Initialize the unique user ID
     application.noOfUser = 0;
}
 
application.onConnect = function(client)
{
     this.acceptConnection(client);
     client.id = "u" + application.noOfUser++;     
     
     client.recordStream=function(streamName)
     {
               trace('record called');
               stream=Stream.get("mp4:"+streamName+".f4v");
               if(stream)
               {
                    stream.record("append");                    
                    stream.play(streamName, -1, -1);
                    live=true;                          
               }
     }
     
     client.stopRecordingStream=function(streamName)
     {
          stream=Stream.get("mp4:"+streamName+".f4v");
          if(stream)
          {
               stream.flush();
               msg=stream.record(false);
               live=false;
               stream.play(false);               
          }
     }
     
}
 
application.onPublish = function (client, stream)
{
}

application.onUnpublish = function(client, stream)
{
}

client side code

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

private function publishCamera():void {                    
     ns = new NetStream(nc);                    
     if(cmbEncoder.selectedItem.data=="Sorenson")
     {
          ns.videoStreamSettings=new VideoStreamSettings();
     }
     else//H.264
     {
          var h264Codec:H264VideoStreamSettings=new H264VideoStreamSettings();          
          h264Codec.setKeyFrameInterval(12);
          h264Codec.setProfileLevel(H264Profile.BASELINE, H264Level.LEVEL_5_1);
          ns.videoStreamSettings=h264Codec;
     }
     cam = Camera.getCamera(cmbCamera.selectedIndex.toString()); 
     mic = Microphone.getMicrophone(cmbMicroPhone.selectedIndex);
     var resolutionWidth:Number;

     resolutionHeight=576;                    
     ns.client = this;
     ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onNetStatus);
     ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
     
     videoQuality=(Number(cmbBandWidth.selectedItem.data)/8)*1024;
     cam.setQuality(videoQuality, 0);     
     
     /* Set the mode of the camera component
     width, height, fps
     this will be the recorded size of the video
     */
     cam.setMode(resolutionWidth,resolutionHeight,12);     
     mic.rate = 11;
     ns.attachCamera(cam);
     ns.attachAudio(mic);          
     ns.publish("mp4:testStream.f4v");
     nc.call('recordStream',null,'testStream');

Your code looks ok and difficult to conclude what's goign wrong. Can you paste your application logs too? If there is a way to attach can you attach all your logs and server and client side source files. If there is no way to attach here - please drop me any email with attachments to rchari@adobe.com
